Take Your Message to the BBC, Wed, 26th

WB | 23.03.2003 22:01

Not happy with the BBC reporting of anit-war protests ? Take the message to their doorstep.

There have been a number of comments on the newswire recently about biased BBC reporting. Some of this centred around the recent anti-war protests since the start of the Iraq conflict. Particularly focus on the fact that M22 was smaller than F15 now that war was underway. Also a lot of anti-war actions are going unreported as journalists focus on the killing fields.

There is a way to make the BBC listen. Take the message to their doorstep. BBC Television Centre is located on Wood Lane, Shepherds Bush. BBC News 24 is produced in a small studio on the first floor of the newer semi-circular part of Television Centre. Out the front of this building is a wide footpath leading to doors that every employee in the building, that don't drive a car, must pass through before entering their offices.

This therefore is a suggestion of taking the protest to the BBC's very doorstep. Make yourselves heard by the BBC on Wednesday, March 26th, 8.30am. Official BBC work hours don't start until 9.30am, so an 8.30am protest will be seen and heard by most employees. Bring your placards, bring your whistles, bring your drums, bring your horns, bring your voices and make a noise. You cannot be ignored!

If there happens to be a Critical Mass ride up Wood Lane or around Shepherd's Bush Green, this will create traffic havoc as any small interuption to traffic flow in this area causes chaos and long delays.

Weekend protests, centred in the city, are clearly not enough. Take the message to the very front door of the State broadcasting authority. Take your activism up a level.

When: Wednesday March 26th, 8.30am
Where: BBC Television Centre, Wood Lane, Shepherds Bush
